    my advice is to stop while you are ahead...hopefully djoker wins and then i think you should pull out...this strategy can work for a bit but you will get busted sometime.

    A strategy like this can't work indefinetely...and when you get busted it will be big....2 tourney's in a row it worked out this way for you...i feel bad for you but you need to learn when to stop.

    I'm sorry. I really am. My ass cheeks were clenched when you made your bets. It takes nuts. I thought you were up. Set betting is too hard though for the juice. Any player can overachieve for one set. Youhzny probably played in sane and Federer probably choked. Yet, now Fed will win easily

    I lost 200 bucks Friday and I wanted to kill someone. I can only imagine 2800 bucks. On the plus side, I imagine you're pretty well off financially to make these bets

    Well, you should have at least kept your $500. That is what I always do with these low odd bets. It can work in the long run if you pick your games carefully and don't be greedy.

    Good luck with US Open!

    i got greedy there, that was a bad choice in hindsight
    i took an unecessary risk, and it looks like there are favorable matchups in the quarters
    watching federer sweep through the rest of the match was agonizing

    I follow a similar strategy like yours, but I do a lot of DD on a few matches that I play on. I only go really big on odds below 1.25. It can work, you just have to not be tempted when you are winning as well as losing. You must have your own convincing reasons to go big.

    Got Sharapova and Nadal today @1.2 and 1.22. Looks like I am going to stop now and just bet normal size. Good luck with your future plays.

    Good in sharing info together
